Question

I’m trying to parse the following HTML from the following URL:

http://md5.rednoize.com/?q=fbade9e36a3f36d3d676c1b808451dd7

The code:

    $html = file_get_contents($url.$hash);
    $config = array(
      'clean' => 'yes',
      'output-html' => 'yes',
    );
    $tidy = tidy_parse_string($html, $config, 'utf8');
    $tidy->cleanRepair();
    $dom = new DOMDocument;
    $dom->loadHTML($tidy);

    $result = $dom->getElementById('result');

However it is invalid:

Warning: DOMDocument::loadHTML() [<a href='domdocument.loadhtml'>domdocument.loadhtml</a>]: ID switcher already defined in Entity, line: 128 in

Is there a way to still be able to parse it?

Answer 1

You can attempt to parse it after turning off strict error checking:

$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->strictErrorChecking = FALSE;
$dom->loadHTML($tidy);
